ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to a fire at a café in Weston early this morning (Thursday, January 12).

Around 4am police were called to a fire at AD’s Café in Brierly Street. ACT Fire and Rescue were also in attendance, had extinguished the blaze and deemed the fire suspicious.

It is estimated the fire caused $100,000 worth of damage to the premises.

There was no damage to any other buildings in the vicinity. Investigations are continuing.

Anyone who may be able to assist with the investigation is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers website on www.act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.

Oh no! Where will I get my bacon and egg rolls from now?

Possible cause could be heat from friction. The type of heat you get by rubbing a loan agreement against an insurance policy.

Would hardly call AD’s a cafe…. more like a chinese fast food that also serves coffee and cake.

And hamburgers, steak sandwiches, fish and chips, sandwiches, desserts etc. So yeah, a cafe by most definitions of the word.

… and does breakfast (bacon, eggs, snags, tomato) etc….!

Evidently the presence of wokked noodles negates the quality of being a cafe.

$100K sounds like a fair amount of damage, hope they can get back into their crease soon (They did a pretty good steak sandwich).

So what purpose does your comment serve exactly? Are you attempting to point out ACT Police media don’t understand how to describe a business accurately? Or do u simply feel the need to make erroneous comments to make yourself seem intelligent because you post on an opinions forum?

A rival noodle bar cum coffee shop perhaps?
